My waist is getting soooo small!!! 5 weeks post op and pics

Hi ladies sorry for the delayed update recovery is long and slow for awhile I had no energy to do anything besides sleep thank God I got to stay home so far for my entire recovery I can't imagine having to go to work I commend those who do this procedure and go back to work after a couple of weeks because this surgery is tough on ur body I will be six weeks post op on Tuesday and I still feel like crap. I'm dieing for my body to feel completely normal again. Does anyone know at what point you start to feel normal again? Anyways enough of my complaining on to my update. I absolutely love my results I am so happy with my new body. Salama is awesome. My waist has gotten so small and even though I lost a few inches in my butt it still looks huge it's the perfect size though it looks very natural. I recommend that anyone who hasn't had there surgery yet do not buy measuring tape and get caught up in the measuring hype we all have different bodies no need to compare ur inches with others on this site some women are built wider so it may give them more inches than a naturally smaller framed person but it doesn't mean that ur results aren't as good because there number is higher. Put the measuring tape away and jus watch ur body improve and you will love ur results. Also same thing with the CC's don't go comparing the amount of fat u had injected with other girls n getting sad because u didnt get as much because again everyone is different you can have great results without having extraordinary amounts of fat injected. I only had 1100 CC's injected but I feel like my results are comparable to the girs wit 1200-1300 CC's so everyone is different stay positive and be patient it takes time for the finished product. I know it can get a lil frustrating if u don't immediately look like the other girls on here right after surgery but trust me everyone heals different just stick with your after care routine and you will be fine. For example my stomach was really lumpy and at first I got a lil scared when at week 3 and 4 it still hadn't changed but I stuck with my routine and all of a sudden all the lumps began to even out n my stomach shrunk now I love my stomach!!! My point is ladies be positive and don't compare urself to others and judge ur results based on that. Oh I have to share!!! I found the answer to my compression garmet nightmare ladies n I wish I would have found it earlier because it would have made the first few weeks alot more comfortable. The most comfortable garmet hands down is the Vedette 136. I love it it feels soooo much better than the lipo express garmets from Salama. I'm currently wearing the Vedette 136 small and my squeem vest in an extra small. I'm gonna order an extra small vedette 136 next week I wish they had a smaller size squeem best because I feel my best getting looser so I definitely could go smaller if they had it. This combo has done wonders for my waist. Now for my arms well those have been a pain in the ass. It was definitely worth it because it drastically changed the appearance of my body I used to look really top heavy because I always gained all my fat in my stomach back and arms now that I got my stomach back and arms lipoed I look so much more proportionate its amazing I feel so much sexier because my arms are smaller so they look more feminine and sexy. But ladies I'm not gonna lie to u the arms have been worse then any other part I had done. The arm garmet is the devil they are not comfortable at all and they cut off my circulation so much that every morning I wake up and my arms and hands are swollen like crazy. But nonetheless I have stuck with it and faithfully continued to wear my compression garmet for my arms like my other one. But it definately makes ur arms smaller without a doubt!!! Only thing is it's been hard to nice into smaller compression garmets because of the fact that it cuts off my circulation and cause my hands to swell. I started in a 2XL ( yes I had fat girl arms) and now Iam in a size L I'm hoping to be able to get to a small but that's probably not gonna happen because of the fact that it cuts off circulation. I really wish they had better garmets for the arms. I know most girls give up on the compression garmet for the arms because of the fact that it's so uncomfortable but I'm gonna continue my routine and continue to update u ladies on how it's going and what I learn along the way.

Help what's the most comfortable stage 2 garmet for 4 weeks post op???

I'm so tired of battling with garmets they irritate my skin, they pinch my skin they burn my skin they itch ugghh help anyone know what the most comfortable long term garmet is I'm currently wearing a medium thing garmet from lipo express smh not comfortable at all!! The thing squeezes the life outta my vagina and the abdominal part is made for a person with a longer torso I have a short torso so the extra fabric rolls up and pinches and burns my skin!!! Help I'm so frustrated I'm trying so hard to stick with all of the doctors orders to a T but this garmet is literally driving me crazy I find myself very angry and irritable during the day because i am so freakin uncomfortable
